Only your phone carrier can help you. Contact them directly.

I did the following so I would no know they (junk calls) were calling.


I used Google to find a silent ringtone and put that on my iPhone. Then I created a contact for that number and associated the silent ringtone to that contact.


When that number calls I do not hear it ring, so it does not bother me. Plus I can associate other junk calls to the same contact and the all get the silent treatment.


Unsolicited SMS text messages get the same treatment.


I got a junk call tonight, and only knew it came in beacuse I had a missed call, but I was not disturbed by the call. I was actually glad I wasted their time for no benefit.
